LYMPHOPENIA: THE MAIN CAUSES
https://doi.org/10.20514/2226-6704-2016-6-2-22-27
Abstract
This review presents recent data on the main causes of lymphopenia. Hereditary immunodeficiency, infectious and autoimmune diseases, malignant tumors, medications, and other conditions when the level of lymphocytes decreases are reviewed.
